Notable changes since the last report (May 2008):
The release schedule for the next C++ standard, informally known
as C++ 0x, has changed. The new standard is now expected to be
ratified sometime in 2011 rather than by the end of this decade
as originally planned. The team's progress on the implementation
of the new C++ standard features has been slow in part due to
ongoing changes to the specification and in part due to the limited
availability of the new core C++ features in existing compilers,
or their instability.
BIS Export Control Classification:
Apache C++ Standard Library contains no encryption source code nor
does it make use of any third party encryption software.
Future plans:
Continue to work on implementing C++ 0x.
